Bailey and Rachel met while doing a retreat in 2013, and it was Rachel who helped Bailey create her first website to start her own business. From that moment, Rachel has developed as a brand teller and web designer. She learned new skills throughout time that helps her offer a more professional and deep (soul based) and complete service to her current clients.
She decided to put herself out there, even though it was something new to her. Because of her decisions and exposure at that retreat, she was able to create a community, to bond with people like her and who also needed her services to show their brands to the world based on their interests and personalities.
Furthermore, she is entitled to help clients to discover who they are and what they want to show as business people. Looking for brand clarity makes their clients find their own voices and differentiate from their competence. Standing out and being truly themselves make people feel comfortable and well-intended when it comes to offering a service while helping others.
On the other hand, we also have to make sure we understand our clients, what their desires are and what they require from us. Rachel gets her clients to connect their vision and communication with their clients’ needs. Building a concept to show up as an authentic brand.
